Clarets defender Danny Lafferty has today joined SkyBet Championship side Rotherham United on a one-month loan deal, subject to clearance.

The Northern Ireland international, who signed a new three-year deal at Turf Moor in 2014, has made two appearances this season for Sean Dyche’s men, most recently in the 1-1 FA Cup draw with Tottenham Hotspur in January.

Prior to the current campaign, Laffery made 12 appearances in all competitions on the way to promotion and will now seek first-team action with the Millers.

Rotherham are currently 21st in the Championship and travel to Huddersfield Town in their next fixture on Saturday, March 7.
